Odour Containment and Abatement

This section has no associated Executive Note

12.—(1) In cases where odour containment within plant and equipment is not possible and control is based upon fully enclosing the odour source within a building or providing localised covers or enclosures, the system shall be kept free from leaks and the extract ventilation rate shall be consistent with the efficient capture of emissions and maintaining a safe working environment.

(2) Where upgrading works are required to comply with the requirements of sub paragraph (1), and an OIP is required by paragraph 10, a plan identifying the proposed measures and timescales for carrying out the works shall be submitted to the relevant local authority as part of the OIP.
